We offer natural pest control options and use non-toxic, low-impact products that are safe around kids and pets. There is no long-term contract, and you can begin with a free quote so you understand the plan and the reasoning behind it before work is scheduled.

Pests we treat around Bend
Pests in Bend
What we deal with most around Bend, OR
When temperatures fall well below freezing for months, rodents are the main event. Mice look for insulated attics, garages, crawl spaces and the warm areas around furnaces, and they can squeeze through very small gaps in siding, vents and utility lines. Once they are inside, they contaminate stored food and chew wiring, so early detection matters more than in almost any other season.
Carpenter ants can settle into wood that has been damp, including window framing, decks and old stumps close to the house. Boxelder bugs and stink bugs gather on sunny walls in fall before slipping inside, and spiders and wasps take advantage of eaves, sheds and wood piles. Near the river and other damp spots, mosquitoes can be a summer nuisance, and ticks and fleas can hitch a ride on pets after outdoor trips.
Weather and pests
How Bend's weather affects pest activity
Bend is dry, sunny and cold. The following numbers are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station and are a guide, not a forecast. July is the warmest month, with highs averaging about 84 degrees, and roughly 16 days a year reach 90 degrees or higher. December is the coldest month, and January lows average near 25 degrees.
About 168 nights a year drop to freezing or below, which is a very long stretch of cold. Precipitation totals only about 11 inches a year, with around 22 inches of snow, and December is the wettest month at just over 2 inches. Snow cover and the deep chill drive rodents and overwintering insects into buildings, and a dry summer means the few places that stay wet, such as irrigated lawns, leaky hose bibs and gutters, become magnets for ants and mosquitoes.
In practice, that means Bend homeowners get the most from timing. Late summer and early fall are the time to seal openings and put up exterior barriers, before nights turn frosty. Winter is for watching attics and garages for droppings or noise. Spring is when to repair damaged wood and check drainage, since snowmelt can leave damp spots near foundations.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Bend
Ant treatment in Bend
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Bend, from sugar ants in kitchens to carpenter ants in damp or damaged wood. Activity climbs quickly once spring temperatures arrive. We find the trails and the nest, treat where the colony lives and follow up so they do not simply return.
Rodent control in Bend
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Bend buildings offer plenty of all three. With a long cold season, the pressure builds every fall. Our exclusion-based approach combines inspection, sealing entry points, trapping and monitoring, so you fix the reason rodents got in, not only the rodents you can see.
Termite control in Bend
Termites are a quiet threat because damage often goes unnoticed for years. A yearly inspection costs little next to the cost of repairs. We inspect for mud tubes, damaged wood and moisture problems, then treat with a plan matched to how your Bend home is built.
Cockroach control in Bend
Cockroaches are hard to get rid of with store-bought sprays. We locate the hiding places, treat cracks, crevices and voids, and use monitoring so we know the treatment worked. It is a common request in Bend apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Bend
Most spiders are harmless, but nobody wants webs around the door or a spider in the basement. We remove webs and egg sacs, treat the perimeter and reduce the insects that spiders feed on, which keeps them from coming back.
Mosquito control in Bend
A little standing water is all it takes for mosquitoes to breed in Bend. We treat resting areas in your yard, help you find and remove breeding sites and schedule visits through the warm season so you can use your yard again.
